What a blessing it was to share the platform with other authors who care about helping young black girls, women, and boys. I had the absolute pleasure of speaking at an event with Jeff Henderson, the author of Cooked; Amy DuBois Barnett, and Robin Givens, who was amazing. Sometimes celebrities are stand-offish, aloof, and don't always come off as being sincere. Not so with Robin, her sharing was real and personal. What a delight. Self-esteem comes from having the courage o be real.
